[rec.music.synth] Compatibility of files...

Hi, net.musicians,

        I've got a PC/AT running  MS-DOS,  for  which  I  have  Passport's
MasterTracks.  I reckon it is a really good sequencer, with lots of power,
etc.  Still I'd like to have a reasonable notator program.  I've seen  the
demo programs of FINALE and Music Printer Plus, and both of them impressed
me for their quality - even if they are fundamentally different  in  their
approaches.  Anyway,  What  I'd  like  would  be to have a notator program
which could produce 'sequencer' files that I could use with  MasterTracks.
MasterTracks  reads  ok  the  normal  DeLuxe Music Construction Set format
(.MID), so if there would be somewhere a (Windows 3.0 preferably)  notator
that  could  actually  write in that format, that would be ace.  Any ideas
over there?

	Thanks in advance,

	Emanuel
